Some cities with high unemploy ment, he said, are footing the transportation bill for their job less citizens who go to other cities in search of work. If elected, he said, he will send those coming to Philadelphia back where they came from. "It's not humanitarian," the President's former disarmament adviser declared, "to permit peo ple without jobs to come into an area where, there is already heavy unemployment." When City Council President t James H. J. Tate, a Democrat, heard about the campaign prom ise of the former Governor of Min nesota, he said: ' "Stassen is a migratory worker Himself, TULELAKE Vernon Ekedahl. refuge manager of the Tule Lake National Wildlife Refuge, has been transferred to the regional office of the Bureau of Sport Fisheries and Wildlife in Portland where he will serve in the capacity of as sistant regional refuge supervisor.

WASHINGTON AP! The ad ministration'! new master plan for air defenses has met with little enthusiasm among some senators who have been critical of delense policies. The plan, outlined by Secretary of Defense Neil H. McElroy Fri day, involves a shift in emphasis from delefye against manned bombers to defense against the ocean-spanning missiles of the future. It would cut back funds for the rival anti-aircralt missiles of the Army and Air Force, the Nike Hercules and the Bomarc. It would add funds to the Army's Nike- Zeus program, aimed at eventual development of missiles to knock down enemy intercontinental missiles. Sen. Richard B. Russell iD-Ga gave general approval. He is chairman of the Armed Services Commiitee which prodded Penta gon officials into defining he new strategy. Russell estimated about l' hit- lion dollars would be saved by the Red Astronauts Older Than Yanks WIESBADEN, Germany (API The first Soviet astronauts-in-training prospective pilots of manned satellites are somewhat older than their American counterparts. This information was picked up by American scientists and edu cators who attended a week-long meeting of the International Aero nautic Federation in Moscow, and then made a 10-day tour of wide ly scattered Soviet cities. The delegates made a 24-hour stop here Thursday on their homeward air journey.

En gineers estimated the mishap would delay construction a month The truck, too. was damaged extensively, but driver Tony Es parza escaped unhurt. WASHINGTON (UPI - Sen Howard W, Cannon iD-Nev.) said today the Senate should investi gate lobbying tactics used to push the nomination of Commerce Secretary Lewis L. Strauss. Cannon said he had information that sures" have been applied to indi vidual senators. He said he thought the people who had lob bied did so under pressure from the executive branch of the gov ernment. An investigation. Cannon' said in a prepared speech, might show "why the confirmation of Mr. Strauss . is so important to cer tain special interests." Contending that Strauss has been a "miserable, tola! and ut ter failure" in developing atomic electric power. Cannon urged that the nomination be rejected. "I had' expected that the facts would be presented in a -reasonable and dispassionate manner: Instead, 1 have heard of the most severe and coarse pressures be ing applied on individual sena tors. Cannon said. "I myself have been lobbied by respected and eminent citizens ia my state who normally would have no direct interest in this case. But my inquiries have led me to believe that pressures have been placed on these men from the executive branch Cannon did not disclose the names of the men. He said he did not want to embarrass them needlessly since they are "honor able men who did only what they were compelled to do because of outside interference from ' the executive Tutor Tells Spelling Ideas POPULATION HIKE WASHINGTON (UPI) to make words an easily turned key to junior s education.- He teaches a special class In word study for seventh and eighth graders.

Glim took over the class several years ago and based his instruc tion on the theory that there s no sense in learning a bunch of letters without learning words as a whole. Glim s pupils have gone into most of the words tossed about in the National Bee, like ptarmi gan, tenebrous, cachinnatory, sor- befacient. Whew! which stems from the whistling sound you make when you re astonished. Nike-Hercules and Bomarc cut backs. But Sen. Henry M. Jackson D Washi, a frequent critic of admin istration defense policies, called the new plan ridiculous and continuation on a reduced basis of the previous master compro mise of the Joint Chiefs of Staff," There is no real effort here to deal boldly with a very difficult defense problem," he said, adding that it should not ioof the public into believing "we have a deleni-e against nuclear attack, either manned or ballistic." "From a strategic standpoint it is wrong because it fails to pro tect our great retaliatory power' Jackson said. Apparently referring to Strate gic Air Command bases. Jackson said "their protection now is last on- the agenda." Sen. Stuart Symington D-Mo engaged in long debate with Sec retary McElroy in the closed door session of the committee. He talked about the new program as welt as what parts of it could be disclosed without endangering na tional security, other committee men said. Later Symington fold newsmen the revised plan "at best is but a compromise effort to satisfy each of the quarreling services. It guarantees-further waste of bil lions of dollars. Sen. Francis ' Case fft-SD teamed with Sen. John Siennis iD-Missi in asking testimony from top air defense officers be fore the Senate acts on the pro posed cutbacks. Stennis called for evaluation of the plan by Gen. Earle E. Part ridge, commander of the Contin ental Air Defense Command, as the "man who is responsible for our air defense. Stennis also said he is thinking about the possibility of postponing for a year all funds for expansion of rival Bomarc and Nike-Hercules. These funds then could be used for strengthening the global bomb ers of the Strategic Air Command and modernizing the Army ana Navy, he added. In spite of McElroy s testimony. there still was considerable con-4 fusion over just what the dollar cutbacks would mean fa the Her cules and Bomarc programs. The mterservice struggle over the merits of these anti-aircraft weapons was what touched off de mands for the new program. which was approved by President Eisenhower before it reached con gress. Jackson reported alter tne ses sion that $469,100,000 was to be chopped from the Army's Hercu les funds and (740.300.009 from tne Air Force's Bomarc. Neither pro gram was eliminated, however. The Army's Zeus Missile would get 15? million dollars in addition al funds. Thus on a dollar basis the Army appeared to have fared better than the Air Force. The balance of the Vi billion dollar reduction would come from nuclear warheads, communi cations equipment and related hardware, Jackson said. Russell said detail! of the new plan wilt he given later to the Senate Appropriations Committee, which 'is handling the 39 billion dollar annual defense money bill.

It is now a semi-independent agency The President had asked $s.- stxi.otio for military assistance to Latin America. The committee ap proved the amount but specified that $3i.S00.fK be used to finance the units of nations in an inter national force.

As for the scheduled hearing Tuesday in Probate Judge Hugh Gibson's court, the Louisiana in formant emphasized: "Long won't budge he wants that hearing."
